Coquito, a Puerto Rican holiday drink, combines rum, coconut milk, and a hint of spices, serving as a refreshing alternative to traditional eggnog.
To avoid a watery coquito, let the mixture rest after heating for 30 minutes, which allows flavors to meld before adding rum and cooling.
Experimenting with coquito can involve adding unique flavors like pistachio or Nutella, but the traditional recipe remains a favorite for many.
For a richer, egg-free coquito, substitute egg yolks with high-fat coconut cream, ensuring a creamy consistency that's comforting and festive.
